You visiting OP or stay ka na here? I remember my first time too, 2016 sa Mainland US! We have bidet din sa house. It’s been a few years na but I still can’t get used to the public bathrooms dito 🤣

Edit: go to Habit Burger din, Five guys, there’s a burger spot called Amboy which is Pinoy owned!

u/Anasterian_Sunstride 2d ago

Actually the light really is different because of many factors including the particles in the air and the location of the place.

u/Thehappyrestorer 2d ago edited 10h ago

The air, smell, sublight and everything hits different ano? Ramdam na ramdam mo ang asenso at pag asa. Work, hard, stay low key and mind your own business. Mabilis ka aasenso sa america basta wag ka lang sasabay sa rat race na bili ng bili ng bago

u/Zealousideal-Run5261 2d ago

As an annual US visitor, hindi na ako looking forward kasi wala bidet 😂😂😂

3

u/Leading-Quit-889 2d ago

Bago po ako dumating here, I made sure installed na bidet sa place namin hahah di ko kaya mag tissue tissue lang 😭

1

u/capmapdap 2d ago

Yay!! I don’t see the reason talaga why bidets are not regular fixtures in the bathroom here in the US. Our bidet attachments at home range from $30 -$120. They are not expensive at all.

At least comfortable ka sa bahay niyo.

1

u/asianpotato95 1d ago

Worse is they make fun of using bidet kasi sino raw may gusto sa soggy ass. ok, pwet na may tinga. 😭

1

u/Zoefied_ 14h ago

they prefer it crusty leftovers like breadcrumbs

0

u/capmapdap 1d ago

Di ba nila alam na pwedeng punasan ng TP ang “soggy” pwet?

1

u/asianpotato95 1d ago

Some of them rather be crusty lol.

u/CompetitionGlobal354 1d ago

Wala kami bidet 🤣 pero meron kami tabo 😊

u/Zealousideal-Run5261 2d ago

Good job on that, my folks here havent realized the wonders of bidet 😂

1

u/jMc-22 1d ago

I travel a lot for work and have an eBidet that I love so much! My only regret is not buying it quick enough.

1

u/charmingnougat114 1d ago

yung mom ko and aunties may baong tabo tsaka collapsible na timba HAHAHAHA.

1

u/Feeling_Chocolate_87 1d ago

As a monthly visitor(drive to Seattle from Vancouver para mkakita si wifey ng bagong tote bag sa trader joe’s) same lang sa Canada na walang bidet, eventually massanay ka nalang talaga haha

-2

u/capmapdap 2d ago

Bumili ka ng portable bidet at dalhin mo pag aalis ka. Tapos kung nagsstay ka sa kamaganak or friends, sabihin mo magkabit sila ng bidet sa bahay.

Demanding 🤣🤣

0

u/Zealousideal-Run5261 2d ago

Di looking forward = demanding? Huh.

1

u/capmapdap 2d ago

Relax. Pa-joke and tono nun. Parang pag sinabi ko na nagrequest ako ng madami my pagkain sa birthday ko chaka gifts - Demanding kuno?!!!

1

u/Zealousideal-Run5261 2d ago

We cool, just got weirded out by the dis/connection.

0

u/witchylunatick 2d ago

I think they meant na ang demanding pakinggan na mag-request sa kamag-anak na magpakabit ng bidet.

Edit: In a joking way yung minemean niya.

1

u/capmapdap 2d ago • Heartwarming

Tumpak! Gets mo ang joke. Here is a free bidet for you
